First thing I did when I got it home was readjust the rear bumper gap by adjusting the rear bumper beam, also disconnected the automatic aerial as I dont listen to the radio and I can stand the sky high aerial.

gave it a good clean:

Next it was off with the Mugen Twinloop :

You can see how tidy it was ^^^

and on with the N1

About this time I also decided that it was just too high at standard height and the standard springs and dampers had to go:

This is what OEM springs and dampers from a 62K car that has been in japan most of its life look like :win:

Got some really tidy Meister Rs off civic life and cleaned them all up, greased the threads and set the spring pre-loads and got them on. No pics unfortunately.

After that I also swapped out the old JDM mini Disc Double Din and the old Alpine CD changer for a New Blue Tooth Double Din Pioneer head unit with Hands free and microphone, works brilliantly as I keep all my music on my Spotify account on my phone.

I then picked up a recently refurbed Spoon Yellow B18 Rocker cover as my original red one was flaking quite a bit:

Gave the bay a quick wipe down with a Microfibre cloth aswell while i was at it.

A couple of pics of some stuff still to go on and some stuff I did get around to fitting aswell:

Also have a spoon lip to respray in Gloss Black ready for the summer.

And how it sits at the moment:

All tucked away:

Plans for the summer are a full set of Federal RSRs and a Fast Road Geo where I will drop the car a bit more aswell.

May even get the spoon lip on.

:drive:
 
Super clean mate, liking the plate :win:

Ha ! Not my idea of a "vanity" plate calling myself a mug but it was on there when I got it so meh.

might be worth a bit I've never check tbh

thanks for the comments guys

:nice:
 
Looks really clean! Got federal rsr's on mine and rate them very well!
 
Pm'd mate,Car looks unreal.

The crappy Phone pics just dont do it justice im afraid.

Just had a full detail aswell, this is why Im so torn about selling up for an S2000

Cant imagine any S2000 id get would be in better nick than this :((
 
Yeah I agree, this is the direction im moving in:
